We spent a compensatory 3 and 2 2's on receivers. That's plenty good capital spent on that position group. We also have spent a ton of cash on our OL.
We didn't leave Mahomes on an island. But these guys we brought in didn't produce tonight. And people here have been way too quick to forget how fragile this team felt before we won the SB. [Reply]

Yes they do. "It's ok, Mahomes will just score 40" is all over the Chris Jones thread. And any thread where people argue we should go after a FA WR or trade. People think you can just put anyone around him and he'll make it work. [Reply]

It was insane people were talking about this WR group like it was a top tier unit in the NFL in isolation. These guys are largely all JAGs without Mahomes. With Mahomes? They can be really solid, but that doesn't make them an elite group.
it really just seemed like we were losing JuJu and Hardman barely played last year so in theory it didn't seem like it should have been that fucking terrible. But hot damn was I wrong, that has to be one of the worst wideout performances I've ever seen. Like yeah, trade Chris Jones and make sure they throw in a fucking wideout with some draft picks. That was so bad you gotta move the money around and get that shit fixed. [Reply]

Some great decision making right there, we’re now paying the price. Turns out you can’t just lose pro bowlers left and right without drafting playmakers and expect to stay on top.
Pickens was so obvious. How many of us were banging the table for him pre-draft? I was one of MANY. Veach has done a great job for us, but two glaring misses in that draft were Moore over Pickens and Kinnard over Woolen. [Reply]

It's possible those were not great picks cause right now Skyy Moore is a shit player. [Reply]

Oh, so he's just going to stop playing football for the Chiefs because of that game? You really think so? How about if that's the last game he plays I'm off CP for a year and if it's not you're off it for a month?
These takes are just stupid. You have 12:1 oddds. [Reply]
